A trusted advisor to some of the world’s top corporate and political leaders, and the creator of The Illumify® Method.
Everyone is talking, but is anyone responding?
When you work in crisis communication for over a decade, you understand the consequences of leaders saying the wrong thing, and the power of saying the right thing. Drawing on 30 years of professional communication experience, Marianne Gobeil is a trusted senior advisor to some of the world’s top corporate and political leaders.
Throughout her career, Marianne has attended many speeches. She’s observed executives, founders, and politicians convey their message to a crowd, and then observed those crowds getting distracted, checking their phones, and tuning out. She recognized how many leaders struggle to both communicate a clear vision and galvanize tangible action around that vision.
Marianne embarked on a quest to master what it means to communicate with impact. How do visionary leaders engage, align, and mobilize to ignite meaningful change?
What started as a curious research project evolved into an internationally-recognized, award-winning body of research on highly effective communication for leaders. Marianne now imparts this knowledge to leaders who want to become more distinctly significant.

Marianne’s seminal, evidence-based work on expressing the leadership that ignites change has been recognized internationally with the highest awards in the communications profession.
